Sgt. Peffer's Cafe Italian

Order at counter and have a seat restaurant.. I sometimes like these, but many times don't. The entire Vibe of this place has a striking resemblance to that of lansky's The bathroom could use a once-over but they are very much understaffed, I will say that I like the fact that I can push the door open with my shoulder instead of having to pull a handle and getting my hands dirty after I just wash them. Appetizers Cambo bread A pizza on a slice of bread, I like it.. Good flavor Homemade cheese bread Buttery garlic cheesy goodness... meatball chunks with pamarola Huge, a meal by itself, very generous portion, large chunks of meatballs. Me and my wife differ on opinions here, I love the taste, she does not..
at all.... It is very, seasoned, I am a fan... White bread and minestrone soup. The bread is cooked right, crispy shell, soft center, soup is very flavorful, very nice.. My kingdom for a plate.... If I can make one suggestion, bring out a couple of small plates with the appetizers... Entrees.. Pizza "prime"..... The good, excellent flavor, I mean, delicious.. The bad, it's is a bit to soggy... Shrimp scampi...... Dry, this makes me so sad, the flavor is good, but the shrimp and pasta are entirely over done.. Perhaps turn the oven down??? Baked creamy chicken Alfredo....... Flavor to me is good, wife does not agree.. The chicken is shaved...... Why?... Final thoughts... It's a decent place that reminds me of lanskys, but sadly, not as good.. This place could be far better with some small changes to improve the quality of food.. One disappointment I see at 90% of "italian" restaurants, where is the authentic carbonara? Those that do offer it, where is the guanciale?? I must mention the staff, y'all are great, super friendly, knowledgeable, you are the star of the show...

Ehhh… I was so excited to try this place so we got multiple things… I wasn’t impressed.
However food was hot and the service was pretty good! The meatloaf sandwich tastes like processed meat and wasn’t a meatloaf to me… the cheese pizza was also not anything significant… we got others in this photo and all were subpar.
We spent 80 bucks on this meal and we wanted McDonald’s dollar menu after….
😞 makes me sad

Hmmm interesting! It’s okay… wouldn’t say I would come back.
When you walk in it’s very dated.
You will see in the picture that they don’t clean their pepper shaker & if thats dirty I can only imagine what else is dirty.
The cheese bread was a joke… I can make that at home white bread with a slice of cheese on it.
What saved the rating to a 3 star was the pizza.
Now it wasn’t the best in town… sauce was flavored able & meat was seasoned well, crust was plane & no taste to it.
Now maybe that is your liking but I like a little seasoning in my crust.
Would I recommend this place??? Probably not when there’s much better places out there for the price & the flavor of Italian food.
